Cocoa Butter is a deeply moisturising natural butter extracted from the roasted seeds of the cacao plant. Known for its creamy texture and subtle chocolate scent, it’s a long-standing favourite for dry skin, stretch marks, and DIY body care. Naturally high in stearic acid and Vitamin E, Cocoa Butter creates a protective barrier that locks in moisture and softens the skin.
